The San Diego Padres waited through a three-hour, 11-minute rain delay and then delivered one of their most complete wins of the season.

San Diego shut out the Cleveland Guardians 5-0 to win the rubber match and take two out of three in Cleveland, responding emphatically after being held to just one hit the night before.

Casey Mize was outstanding, throwing six scoreless innings while allowing just three hits and one walk. Jeremiah Estrada, Adrián Morejón and Yuki Matsui finished the shutout as Cleveland managed only three hits all afte...

The San Diego Padres' six-game winning streak ended with a thud Saturday night in Cleveland.

The Guardians beat San Diego 6-1 and held one of baseball's hottest offenses to just one hit, with Jake Cronenworth's first-inning single accounting for the Padres' entire hit total. San Diego struck out 11 times, managed only five baserunners and failed to score after the first inning.

Joey Cantillo dominated for Cleveland, allowing one hit and one run over six innings while striking out seven. More importantly, Cantillo continued an interesting Guardians pitching strategy by largely avoiding fa...

The San Diego Padres just keep winning.

San Diego erased an early 3-0 deficit and defeated the Cleveland Guardians 7-5 for its sixth consecutive victory and 16th win in the last 20 games.

Xander Bogaerts changed the game with a massive 426-foot two-run homer, Fernando Tatis Jr. tied it with a 404-foot blast, and Luis Campusano continued his scorching stretch with two doubles and three RBI — including the two-run double that gave San Diego the lead for good.

Michael King battled through six innings after a difficult start, while...

The Padres completed one of their biggest series wins of the season, defeating the Milwaukee Brewers 4-3 in an 11-inning thriller at Petco Park to finish off the three-game sweep.

Luis Campusano delivered the walk-off RBI single after Jackson Merrill tied the game with a sacrifice fly, while Adrián Morejón turned in one of the grittiest relief performances of the season, striking out four over two scoreless innings despite constant traffic on the bases.

The Padres just made a statement.

San Diego hammered the Milwaukee Brewers 11-2 at Petco Park, pounding out a season-high 17 hits at home, launching three home runs, and taking the series from the team with the best record in baseball.

Luis Rengifo delivered the game's biggest swing with a second-inning grand slam against his former team after Milwaukee cut him earlier this season.

Jackson Merrill delivered another massive moment, Casey Mize was outstanding in his Petco Park debut, and the San Diego Padres bullpen slammed the door in a playoff-intensity 3-2 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers — the team that entered the night with the best record in baseball.

Merrill launched a 431-foot, two-run home run in the seventh inning to turn a 2-1 deficit into a 3-2 Padres lead. It was another huge swing for one of San Diego’s biggest stars — and Merrill has now homered in THREE STRAIGHT GAMES.

The San Diego Padres brought the POWER and the PITCHING in a statement 7-2 win over the Houston Astros to take the series at Petco Park.

Fernando Tatis Jr. delivered the biggest swing of the night — a 421-foot three-run bomb in the fourth inning that erased a 2-1 deficit and gave San Diego a lead it never surrendered.

The San Diego Padres fought all the way back from a 4-0 deficit, but a massive seventh-inning opportunity went begging in a frustrating 6-3 loss to the Houston Astros at Petco Park.

Robbie Ray’s Padres debut didn’t go according to plan, as the veteran left-hander battled command issues and allowed four earned runs with five walks over five innings.

The Padres’ three-game winning streak is over.

San Diego opened one of the biggest series of the season with a frustrating 5-1 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks as Brandon Pfaadt completely controlled the Padres lineup, retiring 18 consecutive hitters during one stretch.

Michael King battled through five innings, but one rough fourth inning proved costly after Tim Tawa launched a three-run homer that changed the game. The Padres managed just one run, and Arizona’s outstanding defense robbed Jake Cronenworth of what could have been a game-changing home run.

The Padres are absolutely rolling.

San Diego wins its eighth game in its last nine, takes three of four from the Giants, and heads to Arizona with all the momentum after a gritty 5-4 victory at Petco Park.

Jackson Merrill crushed another home run, Kyle Hart delivered three brilliant scoreless innings, Jake Cronenworth delivered the biggest hit of the afternoon, Luis Campusano answered with a clutch RBI after San Francisco closed the gap, and Adrián Morejón slammed the door with another dominant high-leverage performance.

The Padres found a way… AGAIN.

San Diego erased another emotional roller coaster Sunday night, surviving Mason Miller’s first blown save of the season before Jake Cronenworth delivered his sixth career walk-off hit to beat the Giants 6-5 and give the Padres a 2-1 series lead.

Freddy Fermin had the game of his life with three RBIs, a two-run homer, an RBI single and a perfect sacrifice bunt that helped set up the winning run. Walker Buehler battled through adversity, Wandy Peralta delivered arguably the biggest shutdown inning of the night...

The Padres answered in championship fashion.

One night after seeing their five-game winning streak snapped, San Diego came right back with one of its most complete performances of the season, shutting out the Giants 7-0 at Petco Park.

The offense collected 12 hits, drew 5 walks, and constantly pressured San Francisco all night. Fernando Tatis Jr. and Luis Rengifo kept finding ways to get on base and score, Ty France drove in three huge runs, Luis Campusano continued his hot bat with three hits, and Joshua Bowen launched his first Major League home ru...

The Padres found a different way to win Friday night in Miami.

The Padres had every opportunity to salvage the series in Atlanta… and once again, they came up one run short.

San Diego falls 6-5 to the Braves, dropping their third one-run game of this series and losing their second consecutive series. It was another frustrating afternoon where the offense battled back, Ty France launched a massive two-run homer, and the bullpen gave the club every chance to win after Griffin Canning exited.

Then they nearly pulled off one of the craziest comebacks of the season.
